Revelian Test Gamified Cognitive Challenges 5 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In a gamified word-chain, each word must start with the last letter of the previous word: CAT → TREE → ___. Which answer correctly continues the chain?
- EAGLE
- ENTER (Correct answer)
- EAST

Question 2: A risk-reward minigame offers: Option A = guaranteed 4 points; Option B = 50% chance of 10 points, 50% chance of 0. Which option has the higher expected value per round?
- Option A (guaranteed 4 points)
- Option B (expected value 5 points) (Correct answer)
- Both have equal expected value
- It depends on how many rounds remain
Correct answer: Option B (expected value 5 points)
Option B's expected value is 0.5×10 + 0.5×0 = 5 points, which exceeds Option A's guaranteed 4 points.
Question 3: A gamified matrix task shows: Row 1: 2, 4, 8 | Row 2: 3, 9, 27 | Row 3: 4, 16, ___. What fills the blank?
- 48
- 64 (Correct answer)
- 32

Correct answer: 64
Each row raises the first value to increasing powers: 4¹=4, 4²=16, 4³=64.
Question 4: A cognitive inhibition game requires pressing a button for every animal EXCEPT dogs. The words flash: CAT, WOLF, DOG, BIRD, DOG, FISH. How many times should you press?
- 4 (Correct answer)
- 5

CAT, WOLF, BIRD, FISH = 4 presses; both DOG appearances must be inhibited.
Question 5: In a scheduling puzzle game, Task A takes 3 min, Task B takes 5 min (cannot start until A finishes), and Task C takes 2 min (independent). With two workers, what is the minimum total time to finish all tasks?
- 7 minutes
- 8 minutes (Correct answer)
- 10 minutes
- 5 minutes
Correct answer: 8 minutes
Worker 1 runs A (3 min) then B (5 min) = 8 min; Worker 2 runs C (2 min); the A→B chain is the bottleneck at 8 minutes.

- 35 (Correct answer)
- 36
- 37
- 11
